Brief Description:
Speaker:
Tom Rogers is CFII and FAASTeam Representative. He was active duty USAF, taught in T-37s, taught spin training, flew F-15s and spent 31 years as a “airline jockey.” He was with BEFA and now instructs at KPWT. He has a BS of Aeronautical Technology from ASU. In retirement he is teaching Tail wheel and upset prevention and recovery training for GA pilots and CFI candidates.
Description:
From 1949 to 2001, stall and spin accidents decreased year after year. Since 2001, the number of spin accidents has plateaued at a point where we have nearly one each week in the US. Since practicing upsets, spins, and recoveries can be difficult, Tom will present a “ground school” aimed at first explaining LOC, upsets, and unusual attitudes differences. Then a short course on the aerodynamics of stalls and spins. Tom will explain the new FAA emphasis item Avoid-Recognize-Recover. Finally, he will wrap up the presentation by giving you simple steps that are easy to remember. Great presentation for private through ATP, especially CFI candidates, who have not had a chance to undergo professional spin training.
